This is part of the upstream process for a series of policies that are set out in the federal plan, as I said. In any case, the act makes it possible to apply this approach to all ministers involved, including—and this is for us one of the important points of this law —in matters where usually we do not talk about the different situations of men and women. For us at the federal level, that would be mobility or that kind of issue. We talk about that in employment much more easily than in other areas. Here, that applies to all federal ministers, whether in defence, mobility or other matters. This is a very important point. It is really a cross-cutting approach. This affects all ministers.
The entrenchment and the work done in all departments are relatively new, since the act, as I said at the beginning of my presentation, started being truly implemented in 2012, more or less. It is still relatively early in the process of a real implementation, but we have seen great progress with the establishment of a coordination group.
In all departments, certain individuals are appointed to take charge of gender mainstreaming. These people set up coordination groups made up of members responsible for statistics, research and everything else in each of the departments in question. I was not able to elaborate on this aspect, but it is already in place. We have made considerable progress, especially in collecting statistics, a point that Nicolas was not able to discuss. However, the transformative aspect is not yet there in all areas.
